Updated - Drug Misuse and Dependence: UK Guidelines on Clinical Management

The National Treatment Agency for Substance Misuse (NTA) on behalf of the Department of Health and devolved administrations recently published an updated version of Drug Misuse and Dependence: UK Guidelines on Clinical Management (28/9/07). This is a new version of the 1999 Clinical Guidelines, commonly called the “Orange Book”. The new Clinical Guidelines build on the previous evidence-based and well-established Clinical Guidelines but reflect some of the considerable changes that have occurred in drug treatment over the past eight years. The latest Clinical Guidelines also reflects the recent suite of guidance from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE). Hard copies will be available late October 2007. Go to www.nta.nhs.uk for further details.

The “All New” treatment-now.com website.

After much work and the support of Nixon McInnes (our web design company - many thanks Pat!) and many hours of cursing the whole IT thing the new website is here and ready for you to browse.

We hope you find everything you want and need here. We will be adding more content as time goes by and should you have any suggestions for new pages or additional content please do contact us at either 0207 100 9931 or email us at info@treatment-now.com
